Independent, Jacques Cousteau Island hotels

"This place was amazing! Super friendly staff, awesome beach front location. "

"We came here with another couple for 3 nights and had a fantastic time. Friendly staff, amazing food, great amenities. We would definitely come back here."

"Hotel was so nice. The staff was great especially Hector and the bar by the pool."

"This is a really wonderful place to stay! It’s right on the sea of Cortez with dreamy, sunrises and sunsets, the staff is lovely and helpful. The food is excellent, and the Palapas are charming with your own little deck and hammock, and they are quite large inside. Also the resort offers excellent excursions like boat and snorkel trips, paddleboards, and kayaks and more. I will definitely return."

"This is the PERFECT location! The owners are amazing people. The community is very special. I felt right at home, comfortable, welcome. If i needed advice, information, or recommendations, Genaro was always so very helpful. Walking distance from the beach and some amazing food! I would recommend this gem of a stay to everyone. Genaro was one of the nicest people i've ever met! Stella Maris is wonderful! I will 100% be returning next year! "

"Gorgeous casitas overlooking the bay. Boutique resort on the beach with kitesurfing, kayaking or SUP. Each villa has privacy and a spacious interior. Stunning sunrises and moon rises from the patio. Nice breakfasts at the restaurant or kitchenette in the casita. Loved it. A special private place. "

"We loved everything about this property! It has a friendly hostel feel with some very cozy hangout spaces, yoga mats to use, hammocks and a well equipped communal kitchen. The staff were amazing and very helpful. Carlos helped to organize a Sea tour for us at an affordable price. The smoothies were delicious and the sea view room we stayed in was beautiful with a hammock outside. We were a bit hesitant to book at a hostel/hotel as we were travelling with a young child and like some privacy but we all immediately felt at home. Being set back from the main road was also nice as you didn't hear the traffic noise and we slept very well in the peaceful environment. We would definitely return, hopefully soon!! I am going to miss the sunrises from the rooftop deck every morning! "

"Love the concept and execution. The food was great. The staff was hit or miss in terms of friendliness/hospitality. Felt like I was in a masculine wind-surfers playground. I wasn't prepared for how cold it got at night. I would definitely come back with my son--very kid-friendly."

"This was a great find. Right on the beach just south of La Paz. A bit remote and a little difficult to find but it was worth it. The views at sunrise were amazing. The accommodations were great. We'd definitely go back!"
